What’s the biggest tire you can put on it without a lift?
Remember… you can check out any time you want but you can never leave.

What a surprise! Congrats Grumpaw. Glad you're sticking around for the fun.

What a surprise! Congrats Grumpaw. Glad you're sticking around for the fun.

I wish there was a way to justify keeping both, but one or the other would just sit for weeks on end....not good for either.
Being retired I can use the Expi as a "daily driver" which means 3 times a week to the gym and than a run to Bojangles for breakfast with the other "oldies" !!!

Best of luck with the Ex, but I definitely hope you stick around. I never towed anything before the Ranger, and although I still don't tow much, I've always appreciated your willingness to share your encyclopedic knowledge on the subject.

Oh man, you’ll be missed around here. You really have been a great source of towing knowledge for a lot of folks - towing in general but especially for the Ranger - very helpful Steve and people sure seem to appreciate your good advice, whether it confirmed their suspicions, gave them the confidence they needed, or kept them from making bad choices.

Enjoy the new luxury ride and pop in often to say hi.

We’ll miss you….

Yup....3.5 twin turbo, 10 speed auto, 4x4 with 2 speed case, 3.73 limited slip axle, FX4 package with high end other packages.
Still tight as a new vehicle

You won't be disappointed with the 3.5 and its turbos, that's for sure.

You will pay for that fun around town though. I shudder to think of getting in the teens with my F150 with just the 3.5 if it didn't have the hybrid system.

Nice truck you got though, should be uber comfy!

Maintain that 10R80 though!! I've already started mine on its new diet.

Thanks....it is very clean. One owner, and he was a mgr for local UPS warehouse and had to drive between Staunton and Charlottesville daily.....around 80 mile round trip....thus the high miles.
Rear third row seats never sat in, and although tow package is there, he never towed.
Maintaince done by Ford dealer and his mechanics at UPS.....got loads or receipts. It drives like a new vehicle. No warranty, so will be putting $$$$ in separate account for any emergency's....NO THIRD PARTY WARRANTY !!!!!!!
I will still be around....great people here !!!!!
Look for upcomming parts for sale !!!!

Same here got rid of the Ranger in June and got new F150 Lariat. Love the new truck and still come back to this forum daily. Hope you keep coming back like me you are a funny old pervert like me.

Have to ask, with that huge rear hatch how many "tailgate" dampers does it have??

 

[Grumpaw]

2 huge dampers for the hatch (powered) and 2 dampers for the hood. I'm searching for more but the damn thing is so big it may take me awhile............

Tune it.

Steve. Good looking EXP you should enjoy it. Had one way back when. They are a land yacht compared to the Ranger. Hate to see my twin Fitzstick go. Best to you. Enjoy.

 

[Friday yet?]

Looks very nice, very clean.
Should be very comfortable.

YOU sir, will be missed here!

+1
Big time

Since our last trip towing, my wife has been after me to look for a larger/roomier tow vehicle. She loves the Ranger but just wants more room up front.
Looked at numerous Fords (has to be a Ford) that were in the price range of what was offered for the Ranger.....$28 grand. Hard to find a later model F-150 extended cab at a good price.
Local dealer had a 2019 Expedition XLT come in with all the right equipment for towing 9300 lbs. It is high mileage...112,000 but clean all around with a lot of very recent maintaince done...all fluids, total brake and new tires.
So, we bought it...got a good deal for cash, and will make more back on the Ranger sale
I will be stripping any mods I did on the Ranger and will have stuff for sale in the next week or so.
Now I gotta see if the Expedition Forum is any fun !!!! I will still be around....

See Ya!

 

[brroberts]

There are few folks on the Escape Trailer forum towing with them. They seem to like them.
